Monitoring system for monitoring the potential of conductors

Claim 1

IN COMBINATION WITH N CONDUCTORS, WHERE N IS AN INTEGER GREATER THAN TWO, WHEREIN EACH OF SAID CONDUCTORS CAN BE ONLY AT A FIRST VOLTAGE OR A SECOND VOLTAGE, APPARATUS FOR INDICATING WHEN MORE THAN M OF SAID CONDUCTORS IS AT SAID FIRST VOLTAGE, WHERE M IS AN INTEGER LESS THAN N, COMPRISING N IMPEDORS, EACH OF SAID IMPEDORS HAVING FIRST AND SECOND TERMINALS, EACH OF SAID IMPEDORS HAVING THE SAME IMPEDANCE OF X OHMS, MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE FIRST TERMINAL OF EACH OF SAID IMPEDORS TO ONE OF SAID N CONDUCTORS, RESPECTIVELY, A FIRST JUNCTION MEANS, MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE SECOND TERMINALS OF ALL OF SAID IMPEDORS TO SAID FIRST JUNCTION MEANS, A FIRST FIXED IMPEDOR HAVING FIRST AND SECOND TERMINALS, SAID FIRST FIXED IMPEDOR HAVING AN IMPEDANCE OF (X/M) OHMS, A FIRST VOLTAGE SOURCE HAVING SAID FIRST VOLTAGE, MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE FIRST TERMINAL OF SAID FIRST FIXED IMPEDOR TO SAID FIRST VOLTAGE SOURCE, A SECOND FIXED IMPEDOR HAVING FIRST AND SECOND TERMINALS, SAID SECOND FIXED IMPEDOR HAVING AN IMPEDANCE OF (X/N-M) OHMS, A SECOND VOLTAGE SOURCE HAVING SAID SECOND VOLTAGE, MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE FIRST TERMINAL OF SAID SECOND FIXED IMPEDOR TO SAID SECOND VOLTAGE SOURCE, A SECOND JUNCTION MEANS, MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE SECOND TERMINALS OF SAID FIRST AND SECOND FIXED IMPEDORS TO SAID SECOND JUNCTION MEANS, CURRENT DETECTOR MEANS INCLUDING FIRST AND SECOND TERMINALS FOR GIVING AN INDICATION WHEN CURRENT FLOWS FROM ONE OF SAID TERMINALS TO THE OTHER OF SAID TERMINALS, MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE FIRST TERMINAL OF SAID CURRENT DETECTOR MEANS TO ONE OF SAID JUNCTION MEANS, AND MEANS FOR CONNECTING THE SECOND TERMNAL OF SAID CURRENT DETECTOR MEANS TO THE OTHER OF SAID JUNCTION MEANS.
